GoBlueRaiders.com is a fast and accurate Internet source for official coverage
of Blue Raider athletics. Regardless of
where you are or what time of day it is,
you can access up-to-date information
on your favorite Blue Raider sports or athletes.
GoBlueRaiders.com has grown to average more than 14.9 million page views a
year, with the average visitor spending
nearly five minutes on the site each day.
The site has seen in excess of 3.1 million
visitors since January of 2004. After two

years of operation under a national sports
Website provider, GoBlueRaiders.com
moved to a total in-house operation with
a new design and format.
Since 2001, the Athletic Communications office has managed the site and
been responsible for all content, designs,
services and updates. The Website, named
Best Collegiate Sports Web site in 2002 by
the Tennessean, underwent a complete
renovation in 2006. The site received another major design update in time for the
2009-10 academic year.
